Abstract

The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of drying, curing and freezing on the quality of beef. Three types of dried (without salt = $T_1$, with salt = $T_2$ and salt + spices = $T_3$); three types of cured (salt curing = $T_4$, sugar curing = $T_5$ and brine curing = $T_6$) and three types of frozen beef ($0^{\circ}C=T_7^{\circ}C$, $-10^{\circ}C=T_8$ and $-20^{\circ}C=T_9$) were analyzed at different time intervals up to the period of 180 d. Parameters studied were protein, fat, ash, color and cooking loss of beef. All the chemical constituents (protein, fat and ash) were decreased gradually up to 120 d. The decreasing trend was observed rapid after 120 d up to 180 d of preservation. Highest protein loss was found in $T_7$ (11.1 %) and the lowest protein loss was found in $T_6$ (3.85%) in 180 d preservation and significant (p < 0.01) differences were observed among the different preservation methods. Highest fat loss was observed in $T_6$ (7.62%) and the lowest fat loss was observed in $T_2$ (3.18%) and the differences were also significant (p < 0.05) among different methods during the experimental period. Spices dried beef showed a brighter color than others and cured beef showed brown color and the intensity of color was reduced gradually with the increasing of storage period. $T_9$ showed the lowest cooking loss among 3 treatments of frozen beef and the differences also significant (p < 0.01) up to 180 d. It might be stated that sugar curing ($T_5$) and spices drying ($T_3$) would be the useful technique of meat preservation in rural areas and freezing ($T_9$) would be used in large scale preservation at urban areas.

본 연구는 쇠고기의 품질에 있어서 건조, 절임, 냉동의 효과를 평가하기 위해 수행되었다. 건조의 3가지 타입(소금 비처리 = $T_1$, 소금 처리 = $T_2$, 소금 및 향료 처리 = $T_3$), 절임의 3가지 타입(소금 절임 = $T_4$, 설탕 처리 = $T_5$, 소금물 처리 = $T_6$)과 냉동의 3가지 타입($0^{\circ}C$ = T7, $-10^{\circ}C$ = T8, $-20^{\circ}C$ = T9)으로 180일 동안 시간 간격을 두고 쇠고기의 단백질, 지방, 회분, 색도와 조리 영양손실을 분석하였다. 모든 화학적 구성요소들(단백질, 지방과 회분)은 120일 까지 점차적으로 감소하였으며 감소 경향은 저장 120일이 지난 후 180일까지 빠르게 진행되는 것으로 관찰되었다. 180일 저장 기간 동안 $T_7$에서 단백질 손실이 11.1%로 가장 높았으며 $T_6$는 3.85%로 가장 낮은 단백질 손실을 나타냈고 다른 처리구들에서도 유의적 차이(p < 0.01)가 나타났다. $T_6$에서 지방 손실이 7.52%로 가장 높았으며 $T_2$에서 3.18%로 가장 낮았다. 또한 다른 처리구들에서도 서로 유의적인 차이(p < 0.05)를 나타내었다. 향료가 처리된 건조 쇠고기가 가장 밝은 색을 나타냈으며 절임 쇠고기는 갈색으로 나타났다 색의 명암은 저장 기간이 증가함에 따라 점차적으로 감소하였다. 3가지 벙동 타입 중 $T_9$ 쇠고기가 가장 낮은 조리 영양손실을 나타냈으며 다른 처리구들 또한 유의적 차이(p < 0.01)를 나타냈다 설탕 절임($T_5$)과 향료처리 건조($T_3$)방법은 농촌 지역에서 육류 저장기술로 유용할 것이며 냉동($T_9$)방법은 도시 지역에서 큰 규모의 저장에 사용되면 좋을것으로 사료된다.
